“We stayed in the tower room- the best room in our 4 week trip; our frirnds stayed in the room below- again excellent.” (johnwalker1954)

“The garden rooms are slightly more expensive but have a small balcony that is missing in the other rooms. You may want to pick it if you want to spend time in your room. They overlook a wonderful and peaceful garden.” (ViniSinha)

“go for Dreamz if you have a family - super cool house close to the main part.” (976sallya)

“We stayed at the Burgher Room, which is a garden view room, with a good view of the tropical garden and the pool. Due to the placement of the aircon (above the bathroom), the cooling was not as good as it could have been. Wifi (free) works in the public ares, not in rooms, because of the thick walls (it is a 200 year old building!)” (774pankajk)

“Rose Garden room is recommended” (oldandnackered)

“Our room backed onto a side street so couldn't leave the window blinds open. We should have asked to move at the time. So be sure which room you get first.” (JennyandPip)

“We loved the Tower Room best!” (Dipako04)

“They are all divine but the dreamz apartment is great if traveling with small children, It's a five minute walk from the hotel but the walk is fun and you can always get a rickshaw .” (531lucindat)

Stayed here for a couple of nights in Feb 2015, and loved it, reminds you of the old colonial days.
Loved the rooms, we had an outdoor shower, with frogs jumping around our feet when the water started splashing.

Arriving at the hotel we had a wonderful welcome and were shown to a beautiful spacious room that had an additional enclosed balcony with two rocking chairs. It truly felt we had arrived at a little piece of heaven. Small but lovely grounds and dining was also perfect, outside dining with delicious curries. Truly recommend this as a place to...

You know how it is when you open a box of chocolates- which one to choose, and you bite into it- and you just know you've made the best choice- well now think Cochin and choose the Old Harbour hotel. That undefinable quality which makes a place stand out- great location, and then you step into OHH, and you're transported...

We stayed for 2 nights at the Old Harbor hotel with our 5 month old. The hotel's location is right by the Vasco Da Gama square, by the beach, looking out at the Chinese fishing nets. It is perfect for taking leisurely strolls in the morning and evening. We enjoyed just stepping out with our little one in the stroller...

We had a lovely two nights at the Old Harbour Hotel. Our room off the main courtyard was simple but comfortable; the atmosphere was very laid back and the staff very helpful. We ate in the restaurant one evening and the food was good. The hotel is well placed for exploring Cochin which feels very safe to wander around. We...

This hotel has been beautifully restored. The rooms are large airy and comfortable, the staff helpful and courteous, and put themselves out for you. We ate in the restaurant, the food was excellent and was accompanied by music in the evening. Eat inside if you want to avoid the mosquitoes. The hotel faces the seafront with the famous Chinese nets...

We had a lovely ground floor room just off a beautiful courtyard. The rooms and the lobby are full of interesting artwork both old and modern. The pool was quiet during the day (a lovely cool place in the heat) and beautifully lit at night. Breakfast and lunch were both very good. We were slightly disappointed in the evening meal,...

We missed our connecting flight which meant we arrived a day late. I emailed the hotel to advise them of the changes and not only did they call back to confirm our booking was still assured, but they welcomed us in the early hours of the morning with tea and refreshments, and let us use another room temporarily to catch...

A charmingly restored property, this hotel has 13 rooms & is one of Keralas most chic & sought after properties. It is close to the seafront where you can see the Chinese fishing nets & the fish markets. It´s also handy for all the other sights of Cochin. The hotel´s restaurant looks over the inner courtyard which is lit by...

We're now stayed twice here at the old harbour hotel but in the Dreamz house around the corner. Its suits us perfectly as we have 2 kids so we all share this fab house, all to ourself and can use the facilities at the Old Harbour Hotel which was great. The house needs a bit of paint and general update....

At the heart of ancient Fort Cochin, Kerala, a place that exudes history and culture, is the 'Old Harbour Hotel'. A 300 year- old building that has for long been a heritage monument of this town, now reopened as a boutique hotel. Built in the Dutch style of architecture with hints of Portuguese influences, it was the first hotel of old Cochin. Later it remained a residential home to employees of English Tea broking firms until it was left unused for a period of time....more less
